Webhook Retry

What is Webhook Retry?

A webhook retry is a mechanism where an API provider attempts to resend a webhook notification if the initial delivery fails. This usually happens when the recipient’s server is down or returns an error status code.

Why It Matters

• It ensures that critical event notifications are eventually delivered, even during temporary outages.

• Retry logic prevents data inconsistencies between the API provider and the client’s system.

• It reduces the need for manual intervention and reconciliation when network issues occur.
